Subject: AKA Membership info...


I just got off of the phone with Brooks Leffler. I finally remembered
to ask Brooks about overseas memberships and the like.

The non-800 number for the AKA is 408-647-8384. Brooks usually answers
the phone from around 9am to 8pm Pacific time. If he isn't there, you
can leave a message or send him a FAX.

The basic membership fee is $20 per year for individuals. Overseas
memberships have an extra charge for postage. The rates are $10 for
surface mail (which takes forever), or $25 air mail. The membership
directory and the newsletter "Kiting" are mailed to each member.
Occasional other mailings are available.

The membership insurance, which covers all members, is good for kite
flying in the USA only.

Other benefits include reduced prices on AKA publications and
paraphenalia, 10 0iscount from participating retailers, 15 0iscount
from Sasaki Kite Fabrications, and the above mentioned insurance.

Brooks tells me that quite a few of the folks reading this group have
joined. Thanks! But next time, mention that I sent you!      ;-)

I promised to refer to the person, who first confirms the insurance
cover the whole world. What shall I do now, not breaking my promise?
:-)
Simo

Well, you can refer to anyone. Since no one can confirm that the
insurance covers the entire world, you can't break your promise. So,
let your conscious be your guide. However, if you tell Brooks that I
sent you, I'll be eternally grateful...
